Is it the stencils that you trace in, they are of some kind of plastic ?
I've seen these in my local quilt shop, but figured they were for hand quilting.
yep, the plastic ones. you just trace the design with the soluble pen or chalk or whatever else you like to use.

some of them seem to be more for hand quilting. i picked one up the other day at the quilt shop and got home only to discover that there wasn't a way to do continuous stitching. so i'll use it for hand quilting potholders or something. the continuous design ones have a little drawing on them with little arrows showing which path to follow.
